I was on Amazon looking for music and came across these guys. I guess I would compare them to Pantera but more melodic. Check them out if you like heavy metal. I like their first album better than their second.

Like these guys a lot and the new album is decent. Just some good, hard, angry metal...

Yea I'm a big fan of this band. And I like the new album almost as much as the first. The main thing that I like about them compared to most other metal is the vocals. The singer screams and sings instead of screaming throughout the entire album like most other metal bands.

I like most of these bands except for Dragonforce, because I can't take them seriously. Kamelot is a little too opera for me, but still good. And by the way I really like the clean vocals in "Take this Life" but I can't stand the rest of the song for some reason. I guess I usually associate metal with bands like Lamb of God, which I like, but I can't listen to a full album because the harsh vocals get so repetitive.

Ya, most people tend to assicate metal with bands like Lamb Of God, which just annoys me... hence why I pointed it out. Ya, I didn't like harsh vocals at first either, first time I heard them I just thought What, but since then they've really grown on me. It might help if you read along to the lyrics in songs that have harsh vocals in them.

I recomened them above, but I'll say it again-- check out Kill switch engages newest album, as daylight dies, has a decent mix of both vocals styles, and the guy has really good clean singing voice. You also might want to check out Demon Hunter(mainly their newer stuff, two newest albums for the best mix of vocals styles, earlier stuff had a lot more harsh vocals)
